Change namespace/filesystem folder names in Visual Studio
- by Rosarch
I'm trying to change a namespace in Visual Studio.
My folder structure looks something like this:
GameAlpha/
GameAlpha.sln
GameAlphaRelease/
GameAlphaTest/
GameAlphaLevelEditor/
These include namespaces like GameAlphaRelease. I want to change all this to GameBetaRelease.
Before this process, it built fine.
First, I changed the solution and project files from Alpha to Beta. Then, I did a "find-replace-all" on the namespace. Finally, I went through the properties of each project and changed the "Assembly Name" and "Default Namespace" to the appropriate Beta title.
However, now the solution does not build. The error is:
GameAlpha.accessor: The reference to 'GameAlpha.exe' was not found in
the list of this projects references.
(Project: GameBetaTest)
What am I doing wrong? If I remove project GameBetaTest, the solution builds just fine.
Also, what is the preferable way to change the names of the folders in the file system?
